[tackielarla]

i think, if my memory serves me right, most of the 369 Tansan winners were given 100 pesos as balato... i didnt get mine because i felt i deserved to get my 250,000... ehehehehe...

thats why where second of the most corrupt countries in the world...theres no justice at all.

[klavel]

hap! kadugay na aning issue!! elementary pa man cguro ko ani...

well, it's been a long battle and I think they paid their price..i mean, Pepsi is way behind Coca-Cola (in the Philippines)...i think that misfortune affected their sales..

The court's decision is final..so be it..It would have to serve a lesson for Pepsi..

if you thought that was long, try the Marcoses ill-gotten wealth. The wife is running around freely, the daughter is a member of the congress, the son is a governor(i think)... and our government is negotiating with them to return just A PORTION of the money, which rightfully belongs to the Filipino nation! imagine what 10 billion DOLLARS could do to our economy...

$ 10 bn to our economy? Nothing. It will be split among the corrupt pigs in the government.

justice system sa pinas at work... 14 years to reach a decision. well, at least niabot na jud. RIP to 369! Buy pepsi products now! :mrgreen:i think, if my memory serves me right, most of the 369 Tansan winners were given 100 pesos as balato... i didnt get mine because i felt i deserved to get my 250,000... ehehehehe... tackielarla.. you never won anything.. your tansan had "369" printed on it instead of "349". read below..

When the number "349" was announced on May 25, 1992, tens of thousands of Filipinos claimed the prizes, but Pepsi refused to pay all of them, saying the caps did not contain the proper security codes.

so bad! its not a public mistake but a company promotion mistake! its a clear controversy!

[herzabar]

Pepsi, which bottles 7-Up, Mirinda and Mountain Dew in the Philippines, had hired D. G. Consultores, a Mexican consulting firm, to randomly preselect the winning numbers and send a list of the 60 winning combination with their corresponding security codes.

Because the gimmick was a success, Pepsi extended it for five more weeks, from May 12 to June 12, 1992, and again tapped D.G. Consultores to predetermine the 25 additional numbers from the list of unused numbers.

Not just a company mistake..... An international company based in a Turd World Country collaborating with a company from another Turd World Country..... Glad that turned out welll
